Emma Valdivia, who joins the firm as a partner, has more than 12 years of experience leading high profile client searches across the industrial and technology markets. She has executed more than 40 Fortune 100 placements, while supporting critical leadership hires for innovative, high growth companies. She previously served as a principal consultant and partner at DHR International.
“Momenta’s search practice is focused on recruiting exceptional executive talent, who can drive innovation and growth in connected industry and digital transformation,” said Jonathan Moulton, managing partner at Momenta Partners.

Brent Lorenz will lead the firm’s transaction advisory practice, focusing on sell side and buy side M&A for companies in the industrial IoT and connected industry. Based in the firm’s Washington, D.C., office, he offers a unique perspective to the exit and M&A process.
